The following list shows the PADI classes offered, from an introduction to diving (Discover SCUBA) to the basic certification (Open Water) and beyond. For more details, please request more information!

Discover SCUBA: The perfect way to try breathing underwater is in a controlled pool environment with a professional instructor. Even better, your discovery dive will count as your first pool dive in the Open Water course, when you choose to continue your training.

Open Water: Your aquatic adventure starts here! This program is the starting point in your dive education, and consists of three sections:

1. Classroom instruction and knowledge test.
2. Pool dives put the skills into practice and allow you to refine skills.
3. Open Water dives at a local dive destination. This certification allows you to dive up to 60 feet.
4. Class and pool time can be scheduled to accommodate your availability.

SCUBA Refresher: A Refresher class is for divers who want to tune up their skills or just need a little help getting back into the flow of things. This class includes a knowledge review, followed by an equipment and skills review in the pool. (Recommended for certified divers who have not logged a dive in the past six months to a year.)

Advanced Open Water: Take the next step in the adventure. You will select five specialties to explore. They will count toward the first dive of that specialty. Choose from the following:

• Deep Diver
• Night Diver
• Search and Recover
• Underwater Navigator
• Underwater Photographer
• Peak Performance Buoyancy

PADI offers several courses for children, ranging in age from 10-18. For more details, please request additional information through the “Contact” form.

Specialties: These are focused on particular skills used to enhance your diving adventure and experience. Earn a Specialty certification in the following fields:

Rescue Diver: A Rescue Diver certification helps you prevent problems before they happen, or manage problems if they occur. You will be able to recognize key factors, properly plan and assist a diver in a time of need.

Master Scuba Diver: The “bragging rights” of non-professional scuba divers!  Requires Open Water, Advanced, Rescue Diver, five specialties, and 50 logged dives.

Divemaster: The first step to be coming a PRO. You will work on every aspect of diving, from logistically planning a dive to logging every detail. You will work with instructors to build your teaching skills, familiarize yourself with a variety of equipment and expand your diving knowledge.
